Who We Are

Cornerstone Youth Collective (CYC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering marginalized youth and young adults in Seattle. Our mission is to provide essential resources and foster economic opportunities for African American, Latino, and Native American communities. At CYC, we recognize the unique challenges faced by young individuals from these communities, including homelessness, unemployment, lack of access to education, and systemic discrimination. We strive to address these challenges by offering holistic support services tailored to their needs. Our programs focus on providing housing assistance, job training, mental health resources, and access to education. We believe in the importance of comprehensive support to help individuals overcome barriers and achieve self-sufficiency. Through our commitment to social justice and community empowerment, we aim to create a more equitable and sustainable future for Seattle's youth. By leveraging partnerships and engaging with stakeholders, we work to build a network of support that empowers individuals to thrive and contribute positively to their communities.

What We Do

Our mission is to offer sustainability support to underrepresented communities—specifically African American, Latino, and Native Americans. We empower minorities by providing essential resources for long-term stability and success. By fostering economic opportunities, we unite communities impacted by gentrification, cultivating a sense of belonging while preserving Seattle’s rich cultural heritage and diverse history.
